This beach is the best! It has a small grassy area and a long stretch of shallow water, plus dogs are allowed. 🐶😍

The beach doesn't have sand along the shore, but instead has a pontoon that leads into the lake. It's reachable by car, but there aren't too many people around.

This is a lovely little beach! I was pleasantly surprised by the lack of crowds when I visited. They're planning on adding a spot for grilling with charcoal or wood, which is fantastic. The only thing that would make it even better is if they had picnic tables.
